ZL1 driving School

I think it would be cool to get a driving school day for the ZL1 like they get with the ZR1

I completely agree, that would be awesome!

It's on my very short list to take a class at a school like Bondurant. I'd like to get into road racing, it interests me much more than drag racing. I've been playing Forza 4 (which by the way is an incredible game Radz!) for practice.

Spring Mountain also has driving classes. I have been to both beginner and advanced. Great stuff. You learn more in two or three days than you could learn on your own in years. Worth the money!

If there was serious interest, I would be happy to contact Janet on the boards behalf.

My daughter was at Boundarant and loved it. As I said I attended two at Spring Mountain and Dave and Victor and team were top notch and I have met Janet and she is awesome and by the way has her own ZL1 on order!

I think we need 12 for a group buy. If I get 10 or 12 serious folks here then I will call Janet and get a group price for Spring Mountain.

Would you want a 1 day course (pretty basic stuff) or a two or three day course?

Spring Mountain is ABSOLUTELY awesome. GM gives you a school when you buy a ZR1. Had a ball. Was hoping they will do the same with the ZL1. That way you can do the school and Vegas at the same time!!! GM ship my car, NOW!!! NEVER LIFT!!!

I talked to the Bondurant folks at Barrett Jackson last weekend and they told me they're currently "discussing" with GM, the possibility of a class voucher going with the purchase of a ZL1. They told me they have ZL1s there now. I was assuming those were the ones used for the batch of reviews that just came out.
